From: Bola Adedoyin madedoyinng@yahoo.com Subject: How to define Jumps at a variable using another variable To: epidata-list@lists.umanitoba.ca Date: Thursday, 5 August, 2010, 4:25

Hi all,

Please help me on how I can define this jumps.

Variable a04 is exact age of respondent while variable a06 is another question. Variable a06 is only applicable to respondents whose age range is 0-18 otherwise a jump is required to variable a08. This is what I have done below but I keep getting error message.

Kindly help on how I can achieve the jumps.

Thank you.
